The Best Kids' Dental Care in Farmington, MI

With so many unfamiliar sounds and strange sights, the dentist's office can be scary for kids. Fortunately, kids love us! Our team knows that the more fun we have, the more likely kids will stick with regular brushing and flossing. We show each child how to properly brush and floss teeth to prevent tooth decay and tartar build-up that leads to cavities.

We explain every instrument before we use it, and discuss what we're doing step-by-step. We welcome any questions along the way! The more your child knows about what's about to happen, the less scary the experience will be. Earning your child's trust helps reduce fear and set the foundation for a lifetime of positive dental visits.

FAQs About Pediatric Dentistry

• What are the most common dental emergencies you treat?

  Dental emergencies are rare. However, when they do happen, it is important to see a board-certified pediatric dentist as soon as possible. From young children to teens, we treat a range of common dental emergencies, including:

  • Broken or cracked teeth
  • Broken jaw
  • Permanent tooth knocked out
  • Object caught between teeth
  • Severe toothache

  Our friendly staff is here to help you, any time, any day. If your child's dental health is at risk, we take every action to ensure that they receive treatment as soon as possible.

• What should I do if my child is afraid of visiting the dentist?

  To help them with their fear, we suggest you talk to them about what to expect. Focus on the positive parts of their experience, like the fun environment and caring staff. You can also role-play a dental exam or visit at home. Use a toothbrush and a doll to show the process---this can help them feel more comfortable and ready for their visit.

• How can I teach my child good oral hygiene habits?

  Teaching your child good oral hygiene should be fun! Start by brushing your teeth together and singing songs to make the experience enjoyable. Providing them with age-appropriate toothbrushes and toothpaste can also help them feel more involved in their dental care.

• What dental procedures are common for children?

  The most common dental procedures for children include routine check-ups, cleanings, fluoride treatments, and dental sealants. These procedures help to prevent cavities and other oral health issues, ensuring your child's teeth stay healthy as they grow. In some cases, children may also require orthodontic evaluations or treatments to address alignment issues early on.

• How often should my child visit the dentist?

  Children should visit the dentist every six months for routine check-ups and cleanings. However, this frequency may vary depending on your child's specific dental needs and oral health. If your child has had cavities or other dental problems, we highly recommend scheduling visits more often. This will help us keep a close eye on their oral health.

• What are the signs that my child may need to see the dentist sooner than scheduled?

  If your child has tooth pain, swollen gums, or sensitivity to hot or cold foods, they may need dental help right away. If you see any unusual changes in your child's oral health, talk to your pediatric dentist. They can help decide if you need an earlier appointment. Prompt action can often prevent more serious dental issues from developing later on.
